Tell me something I don't know.

[T-6005]

About yourself. Something potentially unexpected and interesting, though not necessarily introspective.

I'll go first.


I think the TV show Reba is hilarious.
I wish my parents were divorced and both of my siblings lived with me, or nearby.
I am strangely graceful at times. This one I can't really explain or quantify, I just am.
Sometimes I pretend that people's shoes tell me a great deal about their personality, and I work out who I like and I don't like around me.

[Cock Joke]

I humped a vacuum, conked my head on a ceiling light, and walked around a shopping center with my shirt upon my head like a turban.

More to come...probably.

[BREAK]

I'd rather have a large group of people I only sorta like than a small circle of people that I truly love to death.

Of course, the reality is I have a small circle of people I only sorta like, so this is nonsense.

[Jakebert]

-I play the saxophone and have since I was 8.
-I live on a farm.
-I have a massive boner for Jenny Lewis.
-I thought that Chocolate Rain sucked.

[JohnnyNemesis]

I usually answer these kinds of questions with some sort of negative confessional about myself, so I'll actually say something positive:

I'm actually considered a quite talented fiction writer 'round these parts, and hope to continue working on my craft in graduate school relatively soon. Yeah, I write short stories and people like 'em, assholes.

I am also a hamburglar.

One of the above is true. You must decide.

ps. I think Reba is quite good, actually. Surprisingly good. And Reba's damn cute, especially for her age. Yes, I'm embarrassing.

[RickyCrack]

Snorlax is actually my favorite pokemon.
my 18 year old brother is married
I'm super scared of open ocean water cuz i'm super scared of giant squids, blue sharks, those sea snails that can inject poison into you that causes the most painful 2 second death ever, jellyfish, Scylla and Charybdis. etc.

[ilovellamas]

rickycrack has a gay bear blanket.

I saw an open mic thing at a coffee shop last night, where Tay Zonday performed shortly before his chocolate rain video took off.

I often find myself extremely annoyed with the behavior of old people.

I really like to play board games, but I don't like to play card games much at all.

[Jakebert]

-while I hate most internet memes, I absolutely love Rickrolling.

[IamSam]

I am a secret fan of "The Sweetest Thing"

I enjoy stealing street signs.

My friends and I play a point based game based on heinous acts.

I find Roman history engrossing.

[BREAK]

My handwriting is fucking beautiful. Especially with a good pen.

[Lizardus]

I wish i were dead more times than i care to count.
I lie to my parents like it's a chronic disease.
I hallucinate.

[Rag Doll]

My handwriting is fucking beautiful. Especially with a good pen.

then it has clearly improved through the years ;p

anyways.

-i hate walking in the rain cause i'm short and my pants are always too long and then the bottoms of the legs get wet and it feels yucky
-everyone on here talks about pokemon, but i've never played a regular pokemon game (only played "pokemon snap" on n64, which i loveee)
-i only have one kidney
-i'm constantly afraid i wont accomplish much and will let everyone down

[Cock Joke]

I like to tell cock jokes. BET YOU DIDN'T KNOW THAT!!! :mad: :eek: :cool:

[0r4ng3]

I absolutely hate singing. Except in Rock Band, where I often play vocals.

I listen to Linkin Park.

I like talking about movies, but most of the time I don't like to actually watch them.

I just lost the game.

[coke_a_holic]

Uhh, here's one: I can't word myself properly at all:


I have chronic headaches and feel sick basically all the time now. I blame it on Seasonal Affective Disorder, but it's probably because I don't sleep and because I hate everyone around me.

I fear basically everything that's coming up in the future and don't like just how unclear everything is in front of me. I hear that some people like that feeling, and I think I used to.

I really, really hate television. Specifically South Park. High school ruined it for me, and it subsequently ruined the rest of television for me. I can't watch it anymore.

I wish I read more, but whenever I try to, unless it's a library book, I always give up because I never feel incentive to continue reading, unless it's a really, really interesting book.

[T-6005]

So far so not too shabby. I'm not particularly surprised, but not too impressed. A lot of these things I could have guessed about a bunch of you, especially those of you that seem younger.

Something I don't know.


I am incredibly afraid of becoming like either of my parents.
I just don't care that much about the people I'm around sometimes but I can't stand feeling lonely.
I have absolutely no idea about how to initiate sex with any tact whatsoever.
The reason I haven't been proactive about finding a fix for recording lag is because I don't think my music is very good anyway. I mostly got into it to relate to others in high school, and although I do truly enjoy it I feel like I'm missing some sort of creative gene or inner voice that other musicians have.

[ilovellamas]

Okay, something Thibault doesn't know.

I'm bisexual.
:eek: ?

[Jakebert]

Which kind of bi? Actual bisexual or trendy teenage girl bisexual?

[Sidewinder]

I slept with a blanket until I was sixteen. Not for comfort or whatever, but because I can't stand laying in bed and having my hands idle beside me. I've taken to sleeping with pillows on both sides now so I can grip them.

I really, really like writing creatively, and am astoundingly good at poetry, although I hate poetry.

I hate cell phones and make constant excuses to not have mine with me.

I actually like a fair portion of romantic stories/chick flicks. Example: I REALLY liked Grey Matters.

I don't like/love any of my family.

[nieh]

I just lost the game.

Fuck you. I was doing so well!
Uhh, here's one: I can't word myself properly at all:

[LIST]

You know, the SAD and the fact that you hate everyone and don't sleep could be related.
And I hate most tv as well. I went 5 years without cable so I would never watch it but would pick up a couple shows on dvd here and there, and now that I HAVE cable for the first couple weeks I had the tv on all the time and now it's right back to the way it was before. I mean, I like the Daily Show and the Colbert Report which I was never able to really watch before, but nothing else really interests me.

[ilovellamas]

lol, it's bad that you'd have to ask. Do I strike you as a trendy teenager? haha.
I'm "actual" bisexual. :P

[Little_Miss_1565]

-- When I feel really stressed out, I like to go to a buddhist center for meditation/dharma talks, though I am kind of skeptical about the whole religion thing.

-- I think I'm pretty but I find it really difficult to believe that anyone else means it when they say I am. A lot of times I purposely ugly it up (no makeups w/breakouts, schlubby t-shirts, etc) to try and avoid the attention I get from creepy lecherous dudes with no game.

-- I <3 internet dating.

[RickyCrack]

I drink pretty heavily. Ninths knows this.
i fucking hate spiders
i take at least three showers a day
i've broken my nose during sex
i can NOT eat onions, tomatoes, peppers, or lettuce.
ninth has touched my wiener.

[nieh]

ninth has touched my wiener.

I think everyone already assumed that was the case.

Stuff about me not everyone knows even though I've mentioned some of it here:

I can juggle. I used to even have a set of juggling pins I could do pretty well with.
My family used to have an autistic kid live with us for 'skilled development' because his mother was batshit insane and shouldn't have even been allowed to take care of a NORMAL kid, let alone one with special needs like that. I'm not sure where he is now.
I still have a secret childish obsession with holographs. When I was younger, I tried to convince my parents to let me get the equipment needed to make them (including a laser) so I could do make them in my garage.
I'm 50% at risk for Huntington's Disease
Since my best friend moved to Florida, I only have 3 people I hang out with regularly, and one of them I only really still hang out with because I don't want that number to go even lower.
I'm naturally a very neutral person. I normally need someone/something to push me in either direction and once that goes away it's not long before I go back to being neutral. It's not uncommon that my neutral face is perceived as boredom or grumpiness when it's really not.

[BREAK]

then it has clearly improved through the years ;p


Everything about me has improved over the years, darling.

When I was little, I used to think black-and-white was a technique they used to make movies scarier. This is because the only B&W stuff I knew as a kid was the old Dracula, Frankenstein, Wolf Man, etc. So whenever I saw anything on TV that wasn't in color, I assumed it was a horror movie and wouldn't watch it.

There's nothing special about me and I'm never going to amount to anything.
Oh wait, something you don't know.

[0r4ng3]

Some more to add.

-Everything makes me sick. About a week ago I threw up because I had about two cups of ice.
-Whenever I have the option, I use a 24-hour clock, even though it always takes me a second to "translate" the time if it's past noon.
-I've noticed that I use adverbs more than the average person. Mostly "admittedly" and "decidedly".
-Part of me is always worrying that my friends will eventually abandon me.

[HornyPope]

There's nothing special about me and I'm never going to amount to anything.
Oh wait, something you don't know.

Special is what you make out of your life, man. It doesn't just fall from the sky.

[Jebus]

-For the past year, I've had almost absolutely no interest in any music. It's really depressing that I can't seem to find that same feeling of enjoyment from a good cd that I used to get back in the day.
-I'm a computer sci major and I can't stand the subject anymore.
- I had painful ingrown nails on both my big toes for a almost a year during 9th or 10th grade, but was too embarrassed to do anything about it.
-I'd like to think of myself as an atheist, but sometimes I find myself praying seriously to god when something goes wrong.

[GreenTerror]

Jebus was my first real internet friend. I was 11, that was 5 years ago holy shit. True story.

Edit: More stuff
- (somewhat related to first one) Anyone I've met online and talk to regularly or have kept in touch with for more than just a few months, I met on here. <lamecheeseyness> I seriously have met the most awesome friends I have ever had through this place, even if I've never met them face to face. </lamecheeseyness>
- That being said, there's at least a few things about everyone I actually know that I don't like, or they just do things that I find no fun or purpose in, which has eventually led me to just stop talking to them, or just make them hate me by being a bitch about it to them. I'm picky? Possibly.
- I really like where I live.
- But I really really REALLY miss the amazing Mexican food places in my old town, as much as I complained about it. It's not across the state or anything, but it's quite a drive.

[JohnnyNemesis]

[LIST]
I have absolutely no idea about how to initiate sex with any tact whatsoever.


It's seriously much easier than you think. Probably, anyway.


i take at least three showers a day
ninth has touched my wiener.

These both apply to me.

[Autonomist]

I hate Red Red Wine. Both the drink and the song.

Despite being pretty poor, especially in comparison with my friends, I can't help but notice that out of nowhere I've suddenly become very generous with my money.

I consider myself a pretty big Jim Carrey fan, though I hate Dumb and Dumber, Bruce Almighty sucked and Eternal Sunshine was among the most disappointed I've ever been watching a movie.

I get bad headaches pretty much daily.

[JoY]

- I don't own a tv, or wait, I do own a tv, but it isn't connected, because I refuse to "go out of my way" to connect something that's going to waste (even more of) my time. I like & enjoy tv-less life.

- sometimes my room gets so messy, I need to jump for my bed. other times my room is just very messy.

- I feel so goddamn ordinary sometimes, that at moments I would like to do something insanely crazy. then again, people will look at me like I'm nuts.

- RickyCrack, I've once bumped my forehead during sex so badly, I walked around with a dark blue bump right above my nose for weeks.

- I firmly believe everything that involves the brain has a conductive (?) scale. sexuality, about every psychiatric disorder, so insanity... this means that everyone has a certain potential to develop a mental state we used to, or still view as abnormal.

- lately I've really gotten into the cardgame bridge.

- like Thi, I really can't stand feeling lonely, although I can entertain myself for many hours when alone.

[TheUnholyNightbringer]

In my younger days, I was ridiculously supsceptible to falling for people over the intarnetz. That's actually how I met my current long-term missus.
I'm an avid fan of LOTR-style fantasy. And get this - I own a mace, and I know how to wield it. Snap.
I actually have two homes. I go between them.
Despite being totally straight, I just can't help but get off with my best friend when we both get drunk.
Oh, and one last one - I much prefer to drink alone than with other people. Always have.

[Vera]

I <3 internet dating.

Who's internet-boning Sarah and why wasn't I informed? :[


~ The reason I refuse to redecorate my room from the state it's been since, shit, 2004 or something, is because I'm paranoid that if I redecorate, I'll never move out of the house.

~ I wish I had more people to call when in need of some company.

[T-6005]

It's seriously much easier than you think. Probably, anyway.

I haven't had a need to develop that skill - tactless has worked thus far.

[Sinister]

I don't suppose this is anything really special, but I generally think Asian girls are the hottest. Sad that there aren't a lot around here.

[Sunny]

i have a really intense fear of death. now and then i will get a little "omg we're all going to die" panic attack. it's quite a bummer. my most recent one was triggered by an article about the inevitable death of the sun. y'know, in 5 billion years.

on a lighter note, i love clothes and shoes, but i can't stand the fashion industry and the whole scene.

i have a personality disorder which i choose to leave untreated as the side effects from the medications are far worse than the disorder itself.

i'm trying to give myself a bit of a personality makeover and try to be patient and kind with everyone. that being said, there are a few people on this planet whom i hate so much i almost get a physical reaction when i'm around them. i also look down on some people... like, a lot... and i can't bring myself to feel bad about it. *does justified superiority dance* :D

[nieh]

I bought a new pair of shoes last week and as a result have tripped going up/down the stairs almost every day since.

[ad8]

Alright...
- My parents once asked me if I was gay cause I was like 15/16 years old and didn't have a girlfriend yet...
- My whole family keeps nagging about that girlfriend thing
- Sometimes, especially in winter, I feel fucking lonely cause I have like 4 or 5 real friends and I know so many people who are way different and don't like me
- I ride about 5000 kilometers/year on my bicycle
- I think I'm not able to love anyone any more cause I just don't know girls that I possibly could love (...and I'm straight, so no boys...)
- I can't help but thinking that people don't take me seriously cause I'm younger(possibly true, but anyways)
I am a melancholic mess
Maybe more to come...

[Rag Doll]

i have a really intense fear of death. now and then i will get a little "omg we're all going to die" panic attack. it's quite a bummer.

me too =(

i would do like, anything in the world to impress one of my professors.

when i was younger i spent so much time telling people i was awesome to hide my insecurities that i now believe i am, in fact, the shit.

my best friend moved to Mississippi a week ago and i am so unbelievably broken because of it. i've realized i don't actually like any of my other friends too much, outside of my boyfriend and 3 guys i never really see anymore cause they live too far for it to really be convenient (one of which posts here!)

[Duskygrin]

- I'm gonna play in a piano concert on - mark the date, tadidadoum - May 3rd.

I still don't know any of the pieces by heart. Every time it's the SAME FUCKING THING. If I don't have any stakes then I'll play the piano too much, every single day God makes. But once I actually happen to have something in view, then... I'm suddenly incapacitated. I just can't play. I'll binge-practise, then fall back dazedly for a couple days.

Way to suck, you'll tell me.

[IamSam]

-I won the Geography Bee for my region when I was in the 5th grade.

-I was a gymnast at one time.

-I hate NOFX.

-My favorite alcoholic drink is Heineken.

Special is what you make out of your life, man. It doesn't just fall from the sky.

I know that. What I should be saying is there's nothing extraordinary about me. I'm just another human. My achievements won't mean shit once I'm dead. I'm not going to change the world. I don't even want to. I know I'm mediocre. I don't need to be reminded of my limitless potential everyday.

My eyebrows are perpetually trying to come together. Because of this, I look pissed the fuck off at all times.

Alrighty...I'll bone up to the challenge. I got out in the next level because I guess National Geographic sent out study guides and my school never got one. So I just studied a crappy children's atlas.

[killer_queen]

- I used to think I was religious but I think I haven't even prayed for years. And religious people started to kinda disgust me. It's a part of growing up, I guess.

- I hate feeling like I'm not the center of the world. Luckily, I don't feel like that very often but when I do I feel really depressed.

- Well, this might actually surprise you. A couple of years ago, I couldn't even stand seeing james spader's face on the tv. I thought he was one of the ugliest creatures in the world.

- No matter how many friends or loving family members I have I do feel lonely all the time and I'm perfectly comfortable with it.

[Dosix]

-I like make wallpapers , remake pictures and photos in Adobe photoshop.
-I training kick boxing for 3 years and I have a lot of bruises :D
-I love polish football club "Zagłębie Sosnowiec" ( My football club is in first polish league but on last position )
- I hate techno !! The worst music which exist !
- I have stupid dog who escape when I dusting in my room ;d , hoover is very scary for my dog :D
- I love horrors and I hate adventure films
- I listen polish punk rock

[Lizardus]

I fucking HATE pineapples.

[Bazza]

I should have a monobrow, but take preventative measures against it (I really don't want to look evil).

I find chicks wearing glasses really hot, I don't know why but I just find it hot. I'd also like to wear glasses myself, but have good eyesight and don't want to be a trendy a-hole by wearing blank lenses (so hopefully my eyesight will deterioate slightly).

I have a horrible obsession with listing and databasing things, seriously anything, also anything on my computer has to have proper file titles and any music has to have perfect tags and is all 128kbps for sake of saving memory whilst preserving some sort of quality.

I hate ipods but have no rational reason why, in fact I have considered getting one but then told myself no I can't since I don't like them, whilst loving everything they do. Maybe I should get one?

I wish I was far more confident.

I stare out of my window far too much and let my mind go completely blank.

[Homer]

I fucking HATE pineapples.

But, I thought I was the only one...

[barangatang]

-I have decided that I am going to devote my whole life to playing music and doing creative, music related things. I haven't told anybody because I'm afraid that I will then no bet doing it for myself and for other people. This is partly due to the fact that I'm obsessed with the why people perceive me. I know it sounds stupid.

[ilovellamas]

This thread has become very interesting since people started telling more "secretive" things. I didn't think that'd actually happen, but now it's interesting. :)

-I actually hate the internet, and I hate using it for social reasons. It's stupid, and there's no good reason for it. I'm embarrassed in real life that I have friends online, and I don't tell people about it.

-I sometimes/often regret letting music slip out of my life. I used to be a kickass sax player, and now I'm very mediocre. It'd be next to impossible for me to ever get as good as I was when I was in high school again.

-Pretty much my entire family pisses me off and I don't really get along with any of them.

-I had to make cotton candy three times this week.

There's nothing wrong with irrationally hating something unless you bitch and complain about it and tell other people that you hate it. I think your best solution might be to buy an mp3 player that does the same things an ipod does.

[JohnnyNemesis]

Glasses and dark brown hair. omg. I can't explain it.

Allow me to use my super-sleuthing skillz to figure this one out:

It's cause you're white.

[wheelchairman]

I would say there is something wrong with hating something for no rational reason...

[Jakebert]

-My dad, and most of his side of the family, are racists. I've been able to grow up not being one because of my mom and other factors, but every now and then I'll think something horribly racist in the back of my head for no reason at all, even though I don't believe it. I really hate my dad's side of the family.

-Related to the first one, I really want to bring home an Indian girl for Christmas sometime, just to piss off my dad's side of the family. Plus, I find Indian women to be very, very attractive.

[Rag Doll]

I received a threatening letter from NBC Universal about a year ago about a Super Mario Bros. ROM I had once hosted on a forgotten Freewebs site I had made 5 years ago.

Other than that... I've got nothing interesting about myself... at the moment.

[JohnnyNemesis]

might be true. i dig glasses and dark brown hair too. my mens has both =)

lawlz. I mean, I was joking, but I was also quite serious at the same time.

Btw, that part about you being "the shit"? I agree.

I just typed out like, four more confessions and deleted them immediately because I felt all shy and shamed, heh. One small one: I deride anyone who's into celebrity gossip, yet I gobble up sports gossip on a daily basis. i = hypocrite lolol

And a big one: I'm actually extreeeeeemely poor, and have been able to get my hands on certain material privileges based on crazy circumstances. Like, I make about 70 bucks a week AND send money home to help my mom out, yet I have a Nintendo Wii and a great collection of books and a crazy awesome Macbook, thanks to rich ex-girlfriends and scholarships and bank loans. My household income was $7,000 a year every year, and I grew up on welfare/other forms of public assistance. It's just crazy (and interesting) that, despite these circumstances, I can still interact with people like y'all.

[Endymion]

we white folk like to have a few dudes from the projects around to show everyone else how tolerant and unpretentious we are.

I had the same feeling. Granted, I always had the looks so I knew that if nothing else I could, at the very least, become a male model or a fashion icon, but I had doubts on everything else. On one hand, I witnessed endless stupidity; on another hand, I was intimidated by intelligence of others. Thinking where I "stood" between these two extremes and what does that mean to my life really overwhelmed me.

At times, my confidence really hit the floor as I struggled with the thought that "maybe I don't know everything after all".

Then, as I entered wider social circles in school and professional environments, I relaxed my obsession with relativism. I think I understood just how wide and diverse people are and I simply began to do what I enjoy doing and I discovered that there is room for me in a number of niches. As I learned more about it, I began to see opportunities instead of limits. Instead of worrying about potential, I worry about having the time to do it all. Truth is, there is so much out there. Trying to qualitatively assess the impact of your work versus that of say Einstein is futile because of the difference in context. He lived in one world, you live in another.

As for mediocrity, I could go on and say that "greatness" (and thus mediocrity) is a Western conception but that's not going to help you probably because it's not like it's about go away. Instead, be reminded that you own two fundamental skills: reasoning and writing. These are extremely important in our world beyond ways I can explain. If you put them to a right use in the right niche, I'm confident you can achieve whatever is it you want to achieve.

He made you turn your head the other way
History quickly crashing through his veins
He's using you to fall back down again
He's seldom mentioned on the radio
He's the fear your leaders call control
He's worse than swearing worse than calling names
Say him publicly and you're insane
No one wants to hear about him now
Wish real hard he goes away somehow
He makes the best of friends begin to fight
But did they know each other in the light?
Every February washed away
He stays behind as colors celebrate
The same crime has a higher price to pay
The judge and jury swear it's not his face
Dirty secrets of economy
He turns that body into GDP
The bell curve blames his baby's DNA
But test scores are how much his parents make
He was flippin' cars in France the other night
He cleans the sewers out beneath Mumbai
'Cross the world and back he's all the same
Angels cry and shake their heads in shame
He lifts the ark of paradise in sin
Which part do you think he's 'livin in?
He's more than 'marchin more than passing law
He remakes how we got to where we are.

Little known facts about your's truly :rolleyes::

-I'm only myself around my family and three of my friends. Can't trust anybody else.

-Snaps in about three seconds and gets pissed out of nothing.

-Really hates MySpace yet goes on there on a weekly basis.

-Lets the art teacher call me Chloe (which rhymes with my name Zoe) only because it's friggin hilarious 'cause she should know my name by now. I write it on everything.

[IamSam]

I played Risk for the first time tonight, won, and will never play again.

[TheUnholyNightbringer]

..outside of my boyfriend and 3 guys i never really see anymore cause they live too far for it to really be convenient (one of which posts here!)

Then drop me a PM sometime! =P

[wheelchairman]

I was conceived in Poland. The Americans evacuated her when Chernobyl went off.

[holland25]

Okay:

-I have a hobby of falling everywhere when I'm drunk. I fall down almost every weekend and then have horrible pains and bruises.
-I can drink 1,5 litre of 40% alcohol, then puke and drink again
-The first thing that impresses me on the girl are legs
-I'm a basketball coach although I never played basketball professionaly
-I'm 21 and I only had one girlfriend (probably because I'm too ugly to have one, or I always choose the wrong one to love)
-I went through many periods in my life - from drum n bass maniac, through RAC music to punk, then all kinds of metal and now I listen to all of the music I listened before, except RAC groups
-I am obsessed with Hayden Panettiere
-I never saw a single episode of Pokemon

[Drafan]

In 7th class at school during graphic art education I made The Offspring graffiti at my school desk. But there was only one "f" (The Ofspring). Me asshole. :rolleyes:
I´m not basketball coach although I played basketball for 7 or 8 years.

[T-6005]

uhhh, guys, Thi wants you to tell him things he doesn't know...
Part of the reason I wanted to be told something I didn't know is because I can honestly guess a lot of it. There'll always be a lot of "I'm the only one who...", for example.

Some of the things are interesting to know, both because I obviously didn't know (the large majority of things I didn't, but I'm talking about the interesting ones).
I was conceived in Poland. The Americans evacuated her when Chernobyl went off.
It was funny, I was about to mention that Per wasn't contributing. I knew you had something in there somewhere!

I have been in a 7.3 earthquake.
I was once arrested in Japan for bike theft. All charges were later dropped when it was found that the bike had been stolen previous to my making off with it. I'm not sure I would have been arrested if I hadn't resisted the police.

[wheelchairman]

My parents have lived all the interesting lives.

My crowning achievement so far though,

When I was in high school I managed to rake up roughly 80 hours of absence in my senior year (I skipped all my spanish classes among other things). Since I knew they were going to send a letter to my parents, I went and talked to the Student Counselor about it, I explained that I had switched from Spanish to Marketing (as a Marketing course in English had just opened up), and that they were still counting my absences in Spanish.

The next day my parents got a letter from the school, my mom emailed the student counselor, and he replied with something like "Don't worry Mrs. Pedersen, Per is a good student. He came and talked with me yesterday and I'm sure he'll do just fine. You have nothing to worry about."

That was probably the best timed thing I've ever done in my life. My mother printed out the email and kept it.

Oh also once I went stoned to work and because of that day they had to implement new idiot proof ways of labelling packages.

[Jakebert]

- Even though I'm better than the average person at virtually everything, I'm great at nothing. Like, I'm faster than the strong majority, but not the fastest. I can beat half the crowd at Guitar Hero, but I'm nowhere near the best. I get mostly A's, but I'm definetely not the smartest. I think this is because of lack of determination and I give up on something once I reach that "good" point. I don't which I'd rather be, good at everything and great and nothing or good at little and great at something.

- I love stand up comedy. I could watch it all day. And if the career I'm pursuing falls through, stand up is where I'm going to go.

- That career I mentioned is journalism because I'm a hell of an opinion writer.

- I swear I'm the only person I know that doesn't tick people off and tries to keep a good image with everybody.

- If you met my friends, you'd probably hate most of them. They're all good people, but can no doubt come by as d-bags.

- I don't burp, intentionally and unintentionally. I don't throw up either, unless I have like a really, really bad fever.

- I've wasted seriously over a thousand dollars on fast food alone in the past year.

- I could be the perfect example for balancing out the no life (internet, video games) with the night life (parties, girls).

- If a song comes on and I know the words, I will sing it.

- I take back what I said about that first thing, because I remember I'm great at three things: I'm the biggest sports fan I've ever met, I'm the best conversation holder I've ever met, and I'm the fastest, best texter I've ever met.

- After making this post, I feel like I'm on MySpace now.

I love how in any kind of confessions thread, all you do is brag about yourself.

[Cock Joke]

I had a dream a few nights ago about a panda who went around eating everyone who isn't gay, and I'm considering making a comic series about that.

Judging from that, I am a very disturbed person, just in case that hasn't crossed the minds of a few people.

[Sidewinder]

I have shortish brown hair and glasses. When my hair gets too long it curls up anyway so it like, never goes past my shoulders.

[killer_queen]

I love how in any kind of confessions thread, all you do is brag about yourself.

Yes! I'm glad someone noticed this. I loved it when he deleted his post in that confessions thread.

By the way, this is something I've never told anyone; my biggest fear is getting raped. I know that this is normal for almost all of the virgin girls but I really am scared of it. That's why I can't easily trust people. That's why I can't make new friends. But I think I'm doing the right things since all of the guys I know are so hungry for sex and can do almost anything for it.

[IamSam]

I'll get a little more in depth.

-I have 30 more credits (one more year) before I graduate with my BA in History Education, minor in Geography.

-I have an IQ in the 130 range, but try not to let others know because they already think I'm smarter than I think I am.

-I value common sense much more than strength, intelligence, and experience. It is my opinion that if you are a viable speaker and can think through common sense, you can get yourself out of any situation.

-I haven't spoken with my father since Christmas.

-I've had two relationships in my 21 years of living, however, everyone seems to come to me for relationship advice. I'm a best friend to many of the opposite sex, flirt constantly, but can never cross the line into an area being more than a friend. And for some reason I'm oddly at peace with this.

[Bazza]

I was conceived in Poland.

I was conceived on the kitchen table, I don't even know how that ever cropped up in conversation but it is something that is true.

[Cock Joke]

I was conceived out the ass!

But you all know I'm the shit. :cool:

[IamSam]

I was conceived out the ass!

But you all know I'm the shit. :cool:

You're not funny.

[HeadAroundU]

I'm giving 5 stars to this thread but I don't feel like contributing. Whatta asshole! :d

[drex878]

You're not funny.

Quoted for the truth.

[T-6005]

Quoted for the truth.
I ALREADY KNOW THAT.

[Endymion]

T -- i am your father.

[Cock Joke]

Shit humor=win! Accept it.

P.S. Bandwagon much?

P.P.S. Quoting someone just to say "You're not funny" or any other "catchphrase" is not just retarded, but flamboyantly homosexual. That had to be pointed out! Being aware of this is crucial!

Thank you & good night.

[IamSam]

I ALREADY KNOW THAT.

I like the word "doppleganger."

[Mota Boy]

I once pissed in a sink, just because I'd never done it before.

[Sidewinder]

I got drunk at hom e tonigth , off of my parent's beer/whisky jusst because Ive never been drnk before. I feel like a loser because it's my first time AND I'm doing it alone.

I meant to post this in the drunk thread. I guess I really AM drunk.

[XYlophonetreeZ]

I now realize that it was all AAE's fault, for posting his own drunken ramblings in this thread. Never mind, I feel better now.:) :) :) :)

[wheelchairman]

I'm not sure if you're joking or not.

Either way if non-virgin girls aren't afraid of rape, well then maybe they know something you don't!

p.s. lol at 1979

[Cock Joke]

I actually find the later shows on Adult Swim to be retarded. Seriously, they suck.

[Sunny]

i'm sure many of you already knew that both i'm lazy AND a nerd. however, i'm not sure if you know JUST how much of a lazy nerd i am, so here's an example for you: i have a household cleaning robot which looks like a cylon. i love it, because it's cute, but i have a feeling the motherfucker will kill me in my sleep and try to take over the world. battlestar galactica taught me to never trust a cylon. :(

[ad8]

I'm not sure, but I think you don't know that I don't know what a household cleaning robot is... and btw, where can you get them? I want one too:D

[Cock Joke]

I like pink.

[Sunny]

I'm not sure, but I think you don't know that I don't know what a household cleaning robot is... and btw, where can you get them? I want one too:D

here's the roomba, a vacuuming cylon... i mean robot:

and here's the scooba, a floor washing robot:

I once pissed in a sink, just because I'd never done it before.It only occurred to me later to mention that I was, like, twelve when this happened.

[darea]

·
·My name is Randy [last name] III, yet there is no Junior. God willing, my son will be IV.
·I find it extremely difficult to call people on the phone. Even relatives, friends, etc. If it’s a person I’ve never talked to before, I rehearse for 20 minutes or more, and many times, don’t end up calling.

·I tend to hate people who talk bad about my three main loves in this life: A certain band that goes nameless in these parts, The Indiana Pacers, and the movie “Liar Liar,” the last of which I know every word, so don’t even try to contend.

When I was out and about, I used to go out of my way to make sure white people heard me listening to rock music on my mp3 player so they wouldn’t be scared of me. And by “used to,” I mean I’m not doing it right now.

But depending on what people see you... they might be scared even if you listen to rock...

Hummm don't know what to say about me...

- I like pink too, but I'm a girl so I'm allowed... but my fave colour is purple
- I'm starting to become a Mighty Boosh fan... (a British TV show, for those who don't know, shame on you)
- Emotional arithmetic is coming out, it's a movie made from the book of a friend of my parents (Matt Cohen, RIP)
- Hentai movies are pretty good

[Davo]

About yourself. Something potentially unexpected and interesting, though not necessarily introspective.

I'll go first.


I think the TV show Reba is hilarious.
I wish my parents were divorced and both of my siblings lived with me, or nearby.
I am strangely graceful at times. This one I can't really explain or quantify, I just am.
Sometimes I pretend that people's shoes tell me a great deal about their personality, and I work out who I like and I don't like around me.


I am not a dick. :D

[Offspring-Junkie]

I'm still listening to The Offspring. That's not obvious. Many in this forum post that they don't listen anymore, they just hang around here.

[IamSam]

When I was about 8 I saw a bee on the sidewalk. I thought some fresh honey would taste great so I picked up the bee. He seemed dead at the time. I then tried to squeeze honey out of the bee. Needless to say I was not happy when I was stung on the thumb.

My highest bowling score is a 130.

I am a junior in college.

I find myself over analyzing things on a minute to minute basis.

I think that they should never have given the Olympics to China. I also think that the US should do without the Olympics as well.

Brian Reagan is my favorite comedian.

[Cock Joke]

This fact always slips my mind! When I was, maybe 5 years old, I was bitten by a black cat!!! No joke! 100% black fur!

I guess that's why my luck always turns out the way it does. :rolleyes:

[ruroken]

I'm half Polish.

[0r4ng3]

Some more:

- I tend to spend more time worrying about work that I didn't do than actually doing the work that caused me to worry in the first place. Heck, I'm doing it right now.

- I've punched my brother in the face. The day he came home from the hospital. After being born.

- My iPod has a sticker of Earthbound-era Ness on the back. My flash drive is named "PK Flash".

- Throughout middle and high school, I was known for having too many nicknames. That trend is starting again in college.

- I have a yellow frisbee that I named "Yellow Fever". I'm also on the Ultimate team in New Paltz, though it's still considered a club here.

- I don't have a favorite color anymore. I haven't since sometime around Winter Break.

- I lost the game again.

[Sidewinder]

It only occurred to me later to mention that I was, like, twelve when this happened.

I did that when I was like, 15.

[T-6005]

My father does it on a regular basis. Growing up he used to piss in the yard and he killed all of the grass in the yard.

[Vera]

I realized something about drinking a few days ago. It's not that I don't like drinking.. It's just that I don't like drinking with certain people, and those people tend to be the folk who're like "har har surely you'll join us for a night of partying", and I weight my options and usually go for "staying in, laming online". But drinking with my best friends is A++++++ and I wish I could do it more often. :/

[wheelchairman]

And long ago I realized that you control the level of enjoyment you have with those you drink. Not enjoying yourself in entirely contingent on your commitment to your own enjoyment. Not other people.

[JohnnyNemesis]

I know this is going a few pages back, but regarding NineteenSeventyNine being braggadocios in this thread and other confession style topics...so what? It can sorta be off-putting, but at least he, unlike many of us on the BBS, is confident in a way that doesn't constantly tear others down (I'm including an honest criticism of myself in that remark, but also an honest and hopefully constructive criticism those of you who called him out on it too).

[wheelchairman]

I think the main reason is that it's not honest. It's a dishonest facsimile of confidence that is completely transparent.

Whether it's better or not is up to interpretation, I would place it on a par with those who tore him down and that is an honest critique of myself.

[JohnnyNemesis]

I see what you mean. I don't mean to suggest that one is better than the other, but I would encourage anyone who tears him down for it to also be as honest with themselves about the way their own confidence affects others.

[Rag Doll]

Regarding drinking....

I think it's hard for me to enjoy myself with certain people, also, for one BIG reason. Trust. If we go to a bar, someone will say they will be the designated driver...and then two hours later they are shitfaced. I feel like I need to constantly be sober/nearly sober and watching everyone all night so no one that is drunk ends up driving and then I worry and wahwahwah. This only happens with certain friends. And it drives me up a fucking wall because it totally ruins my night because I'm worrying so much. And I don't want to go anymore because then I am constantly DD and feel like I'm just fucking babysitting everyone and making sure the other DDs are sober enough to drive. =\

[killer_queen]

I'm not sure if you're joking or not.

Either way if non-virgin girls aren't afraid of rape, well then maybe they know something you don't!
I didn't say that non-virgins weren't afraid of rape. But virgins' fear is just bigger and weirder. Like, when I'm in a cafe with my friends and the waiter brings a drink from some guy I don't know, I always freak out and generally leave the place. I'm not sure if you can understand what I'm saying, things might be a lot different in your culture.

Ricky, about 1979, he deleted his post in that confessions thread after people said he was bragging. Confidence is something I really appreciate but you can't get it by just bragging. It doesn't annoy me of course, I just find it kind of funny.

[Rag Doll]

Gulsah, I'm afraid of it too. And I while I wouldn't leave the bar, I'd send the drink back and become *very* aware of my surroundings....

[JoY]

i'm sure many of you already knew that both i'm lazy AND a nerd. however, i'm not sure if you know JUST how much of a lazy nerd i am, so here's an example for you: i have a household cleaning robot which looks like a cylon. i love it, because it's cute, but i have a feeling the motherfucker will kill me in my sleep and try to take over the world. battlestar galactica taught me to never trust a cylon. :(

omg, i swear2u, I totally want that thing NOW.<3

[TheUnholyNightbringer]

*Sends you champagne* you come back to my place. I have very inteesting things to show you.

*breathes heavily*

Go on, turn me down. I DARE you.

[Jebus]

I've never mustered up the courage to piss in the sink, but always thought about doing it. I've also thought about taking a dump in the trashcan in my room when someone else was using the bathroom. That's going a bit too far though.

When I had my first confession (I was 6-7), I told the priest that I committed adultery several times not knowing exactly what it was. Sunday school teacher never gave us a clear answer when asked about the 7th commandment. =\

[mrconeman]

Ah, speaking of confessions I can now tell you all something you don't know.

I made my first confession several years after I was supposed to. The first time I went into the booth and waited for like 5 minutes, there was no one there, so I got bored and left. This sounds minor, but it was supposed to be this huge thing for a child here. I've never told anyone that before.

[Andy]

I once urinated on the front doors of Gucci Paris.

[Rag Doll]

*Sends you champagne* you come back to my place. I have very inteesting things to show you.

But you have an English accent. You know what that does to me. I couldn't turn you down =(
